The Draft

Only those who choose not to serve can serve their nation best.

The lone horseman speeds from tiny village to tiny village, proclaiming “Our nation is under siege! Your country needs YOU to help protect her!” A noble cause for sure, but not everything is as it seems, as soon the adventurers discover that there is no war. No captured cities, no fallen strongholds, no massive armies on the advance. Peaceful relations stretch as far as the eye can see (aside from the occasional religious dispute), but nobody who has the ‘power’ to do anything about it WILL do anything.
